OS**T! ZOMBIES!

Today is my birthday. In RL it kind of sucked, because of a series of unfortunate events this morning (ie waking up and finding out the dog ate a hole in the sofa, etc etc). So, I decided to log into UO and have a party with my friend Mr. Skeleton.
What I found when I logged in has traumatized me for life.
I had just come in the front door and was about to show off my cake to Skelly (mmmm grey cake. My favorite flavor). As I walked in the house, Skelly raised his lantern and asked me "Did you hear that?". At first I thought he was just being paranoid. The poor guy was robbed by cA a couple of years ago and never really got over it. I was about to quickly dismiss him, when I heard it too. A kind of annoying groaning. I set down the cake, and went to peek out the door. As I did, a huge wave of zombies plowed through and into the house. I pushed back as many as possible, and then hopped my table barrier as fast as my house lockdown macros would allow. Unfortunately, a few had already made it through. Mr Skeleton and I had to lay the smack down on them quick, fast, and in a hurry. Once we had gotten them all (or so I thought), I turned around to retrieve the cake and survey the scene.
Meanwhile, on another character, I had heard of this mass zombie invasion and so I decided to log in and check it out. As soon as I poof'd into existence in Sosaria, I could see the dire nature of this situation. I quickly opened the front door and hacked/slashed to my heart's content until (with a little help from some friends) most of the zeds were back to being re-dead.
So, if you're the adventurous type and know where I live, you might want to head over and check things out. When I finally got to safety and logged, there were still a ton of zombies roaming the forest (though not nearly as many as the first wave). Good luck to you sirs.
